My Favorite Spring/Summer Blushes

Hello!

Today, I'll be talking about my top favorite spring and summer blushes. My blush collection is quite small, so I only chose three blushes. It's technically four though, since one is a duo blush. I was flipping through my magazines and found this spring like page from the beauty section. I decided to incorporate it into my blush photo shoot.

The Balm's Blush in "Hot Mama"

This was one of my first high end blush purchases. I found it in a kit by The Balm at Marshalls. When spring rolls around, I always find myself abusing this little guy. It can be used on your lids and cheeks! I would say you get about medium pigmentation from it. I'd describe it as a coral peach with golden shimmer. It could be used as a highlighter as well! I love the glow that it gives my skin. It retails for $20. The Balm is usually on Hautelook.

Wet N Wild's Coloricon Blush in "Pearlescent Pink"

This is my favorite Wet n Wild blush. I owned one of the other ones, but it made me look like a clown. These retail for $2.99. It's a beautiful light rose with golden shimmer. It's soft and quite pigmented! You have to use a light hand when applying it. I love how it goes well with almost any makeup look.

Sephora Microsmooth Blush Duo in "Guava Glow"

I believe I picked this up due to Dulce Candy awhile back. I saw it and was instantly in love by how it looked and the cute name. The left side is a shimmery golden peach pink, while the right side is a matte coral watermelon. I love wearing them both alone or I highlight with the shimmer and apply the matte as a blush. I've always liked the products I've tried from the Sephora line. Great for a natural look! They retail for $17.

-eye twitch- DID SOMEBODY SAY GUAVA??????????Ahhh, so this is what you used the magazine background for! Not too shabby! :DArgh, I really want Hot Mama for summer now. And Guava Glow. Annnnnnnd I should probably dig out Pearlescent Pink because like Louise up there, I've also been neglecting it @_@
